Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
-To compare onset and duration of sensory blockade. -To compare onset and duration of motor blockade. Timepoint: Patient will be put in supine position soon after Sub arachnoid block motor and sensory blockade will assessed as baseline from the time of administration of test drug and each minute upto 15 minutes followed by every 15 minutes once upto 120 minutes

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To assess duration of analgesia.Timepoint: Duraion of analgesia will be noted (onset of sensory block to onset of pain postoperatively- VAS more than 3 ;To assess Hemodynamic changes and side effects if anyTimepoint: Patientâ??s HR, NIBP, SPO2 will be monitored at 3 min interval up to 15 minutes after that every 5 mins up to 60 mins after that every 10 mins until end of the procedure.;To assess sedation scoreTimepoint: Ramsay Sedation score is monitored every 15 mins from the time of IV infusion for 2hrs intraoperatively and immediately at postoperative.
